It's going to re-launch soon

GIMP or Krita might not be up to the standard as Affinity and Photoshop are, but at least while perfecting my skills in GIMP, I don't have to worry about having to find a different software because a random company purchases it.

This makes a lot of sense

Found the porch pirate.

Lmao.

Open terminal

See whether the app is in my distro's repos, flathub, or snapcraft (It's not)

Go on the internet, search up the app's name

Download the AppImage (might be a virus)

LibFuse2 is not installed (fuck me)

Install LibFuse2

Install Gearlever to integrate AppImage into my desktop

I can finally launch the app

It's worth mentioning that GIMP is mainly developed by two developers. If you wish for the development to be faster, you should consider donating.

It technically is, but "Linux" in Android's case is meant as the kernel.

I'm sure there will be developers capable enough to keep it working on new operating systems. Games that worked with it until now will keep on working, and that's what matters to most people anyways. No need for major changes to the codebase.

That's what I used to think as well actually. I opened it, saw the airplane control center, and closed it. But then I volunteered for editing a photo for my school, and I had to learn how to effectively create borders around the text, as I would have to makes a lot of changes to them. So I searched and came across this video. And then I understood that GIMP is actually a really powerful tool, you just have to learn how the developers intended you to work with it. Admittedly, having to use the drop shadow feature for text borders is pretty retarded, but it lets you fine tune the how the end result will look.

Nintendo refuses to fix the joycon drift issue and still charges full price for a 7 years old device. We will call it a moral draw.

Not gonna lie, that's concerning.

Are the Ubuntu ads in the room with us right now? The only thing I remember is apt telling you about Ubuntu Pro. At that point Plasma is adware too for advertising their donation page.

Agreed. I was inspired to make this masterpiece while reading the comments on my previous meme.

I've used GIMP to create all of my memes. It's just fine, even if the UI can be unintuitive.

It lacks features compared to Photoshop, which is a reference to the fact that 2 developers maintain the core features of it.

I politely disagree. Finding the Core ISO is harder than the Server/Desktop ones. https://ubuntu.com/download/core

There's a Build Your Core button. And that takes you to a docs page that lets you download a pre-built image. I think it's pretty obvious that this is not the Desktop Ubuntu.

I require context.

Don't forget that this abomination was made by a paid team of programmers.

It can be sad to realize that perfect privacy and security can't be achieved, but on the other hand, what you can't change are things such as Intel ME, proprietary blobs in android or the linux kernel. It still pisses me off, but unless the FBI specifically targets me, there's no reason to worry about this, and so I don't. I instead focus on minimizing data collection, and being in control of my software, which is doable.
